Spacious and Modern 3LDK Apartment in a Quiet Kumamoto Neighborhood
This well-presented 3LDK apartment, located on the 2nd floor of the 11-story "Aile Mansion Chikami," offers a comfortable and convenient lifestyle in Kumamoto's Minami Ward. Built in May 2020, the property is only 6 years old and features a modern, bright living space with a generous 18-jo (approx. 29.7 sqm) Living-Dining-Kitchen area. The LDK boasts large windows and a center-opening sash system, creating an open and airy atmosphere that extends to the balcony, filling the room with natural light.
According to the agent's detailed notes, the apartment's location in a residential neighborhood ensures a very quiet environment. Within walking distance, residents have access to Yume Mart supermarket, various restaurants, and Saiseikai Kumamoto Hospital, offering excellent daily convenience. A unique feature is that the space below the unit is a parking area, which reduces the need to be overly concerned about noise transmission to downstairs neighbors, making it ideal for families with small children. Direct elevator access from the parking lot allows for easy, single-level living without using stairs, and bicycles can be brought into the elevator. The spacious 18-jo LDK, with its large openings, feels exceptionally bright. The layout allows for the possibility of connecting an adjacent Western-style room to expand the living area even further. The condominium employs a bulk power reception system for the entire building, which can help reduce monthly electricity costs. One on-site flat parking space is available for transfer, and the agent can also introduce an additional parking space in the nearby area. Pet ownership is permitted (with detailed keeping rules). The property falls within the Hiyoshi Higashi Elementary and Hiyoshi Junior High school districts.
The surrounding area is well-serviced: Yume Mart Chikami is about a 10-minute walk, a 7-Eleven is about 6 minutes away, Saiseikai Kumamoto Hospital is a 9-minute walk, and the Hiyoshi-komae bus stop is 6 minutes away. Childcare and schools are also close, with Ai Nursery School a 5-minute walk, Hiyoshi Higashi Elementary School a 5-minute walk, and Hiyoshi Junior High School an 8-minute walk.
The Minami Ward area of Kumamoto provides a balanced urban-suburban feel. An interesting local fact is that Kumamoto is famous for its castle, one of Japan's premier historic fortresses. The closest major tourist attraction is the magnificent Kumamoto Castle, a stunning reconstruction and a symbol of the city's samurai heritage, located approximately 6 kilometers north of the property.
